Luke skywalker,
Darth Vader,
Yoda,

chewbacca,
Han Solo,
C3PO+R2 D2.
It is set a long ago time in a galaxy far, far away. It started of as a film but after the film became popular there was books made. I love this film/book because it is really, really strange and exiting. I watched it when I was about five and have watched it millions of times after that.

4. It is a film.
5.When the Beauford tannan falls into a wheel barrow full of horse poo.
My favourite science film is Gardiner’s of the Galicsy.
I know it’s in the science fiction genre because
it’s in space , has aliens and space ships.
The Goodie’s are Peter Quill the StarLord,Gamora,
Drax,Groot and Rocket Racoon. The badies are
Ronan and Nebula.
Originally it was a comic. I really like Rocket Racoon
and his massive Rocket launcher.
My favourite sci fi film is Avatar. The story is set in the year 2154 it involves a mission by the U.S armed forces to an earth size moon in orbit around a massive star. This new world Pandora is a rich source of a mineral that earth desperately needs this is what makes it a sci-fi film. In Pandora the forest peacefully live blue skinned golden eyed giants Neytiri is the daughterof the leader she is strong and becomes friends with Jake a former marine and brave warrior is sent to Avitar by Dr Grace to explore the planet. I loved it she they had to fight back she the bulldozers come it was exciting to watch.
My favourite Sic-fi film is Back to the Future 2. Doc builds a time machine which goes to the future and it has technology, this is how I know it’s a sci-fi film. The main characters are Marty Mcfly, Doc and Biff Tannen. It is set in America in the 1980 and they go to the future in 2015. It is a very good film. I love it where they have hover boards and I really what one.
I don’t have a favourite sci fi film but if I did it would be star wars. It has intergalactic robots ,new planets , light sabers and baddies . The film is not set on Earth but on a different planet It was set on a different planet, and its main characters are ……..
Yoda, Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker, this definitely makes it a sci fi film and after it was filmed lots of star wars books came out and they were very popular. Its still a big hit today, If you don’t know much, get watching .Its brilliant!!!
My favourite Sci-Fi (science fiction) television show is called Eve. It is about a robot with powers beyond human science. It has super advanced technology, and futuristic weapons. The main characters are Eve, the robot, who looks, but doesn’t act, like a normal human girl, Will, who lives with her and helps her to fit in, Will`s dad, who also lives with her and actually created her and Lilly, who is Will`s best friend and has to keep Eve a secret. It is set in a normal town, in the present. Eve was an original idea, but I think they chose the name Eve because in the bible story Adam and Eve, that Eve is the very first girl, and in the television show she is the very first robot girl. I love it because it is really exciting and always ends on a cliffhanger so you can`t wait to find out what happens next.
My favourite sci-fi film is Guardians of the Galaxy.
I know this is a sci-fi film because it has space ships, guns and characters from other worlds.
The Guardians of the Galaxy are five epic characters called Star lord, Groot, Rocket, Drax, and Gamora. The story is set in a parallel dimension.
The characters started from the Marvel comic series.
I love the film because it has great action, its funny and most of all it has the best sound track.
My favourite Sci-Fi show is Sarah Jane Adventures. I know that it is science fiction because it shows things that cannot happen in real life. It also has some weapons and new technology in it so that is a clue that it is Sci- Fi.
The main characters are ;
Sarah Jane (Elisabeth Sladen)
Luke Smith (Tommy Knight)
Rani Chandra (Anjli Mohindra)
Clyde Langer (Daniel Anthony)
Sarah Jane Adventures is a spin off programme from Doctor Who. Sarah Jane was one of the Doctors assistants in the 1970s.
I like all the great stories and the different alien characters that Sarah Jane and the children have battles with.

My favourite sci-fi film is Avatar because they all live in a beautiful place underneath Earth and that place is called Pandora. This epic science fiction film was directed, written and produced by James Cameron. I like how they came up with a whole load of people called na’vi, a new place with floating islands and load of new stuff like the Hammerhead Titanotheres and Viperwolfs. I also like how they made Pandora similar to Earth with lots of trees and plants. The mossy trees help the na’vi to slide across each of the floating islands. They are really good at archery and fighting and that is an advantage for them because there are lots of fierce beasts that rome around the wild life of Pandora. The main characters are Jake Sully, a disabled former Marine who becomes part of the Avatar Program after his twin brother is killed and Neytiri, the daughter of the leader of the Na’vi. Avatar is based off of every single science fiction book James had read through out his childhood.

The main characters of Star War:
Few of the good guys – Corron Horn, Leia, Ackbar.

Avatar came from the books to film and Star Wars came in the same way! I really liked that Dr Grace was secretly a bad guy. My favourite part is when they had to fight back the bulldozers! My favourite part in Star Wars is the death of Gamorrean . I’ d hate the to be the clean up crew!
My favourite Sci-Fi film is Avengers Assemble. Avengers is Science fiction because all the hero’s use their powers to beat Loki. Iron Man uses his heart and they use pod fighters to travel which has electronic keypad to go on auto-pilot. The main characters are; Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Loki and Hulk. Avengers isn’t a comic or book but it’s based around other comics which are Marvel. I love the tension that it causes and now and again it’s really funny. All the characters have their own personality that makes it good.
My favourite Sci-Fi film is ”Monsters vs Aliens”. Although the film didn’t come from a book It is definitely Sci-Fi because it has strange mutant creatures, Aliens and a giant called human Susan, they also use cool gadgets like x-ray guns. The main characters are Ginormica (Susan), Dr.Cockroach Ph.D., The Missing Link, Insectosourus and B.O.B.
It is set in Modesto (America) where the Worlds most unlikely heroes join forces and go on a mission to save Earth from an Alien Invasion. The thing I like about this film is the Aliens because they look very strange and the gadgets that they use. I have had this film since I was younger and I used to watch it with my brothers.
I don’t have a favourite film but the most recent one I have seen is Gravity.
I think it is science fiction because it has loads of technology and a space centre.
Gravity stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as astronauts. It is set in space.
It was brought out as a film in November 2013.
I like this film because it is tense.
In my personal ipinion I think that Avengers Assemble is the best SCI-FI film, because all of the Avengers have special powers to defeat the baddies of the world esspecialy Loki. The main characters in the film are Iron man, Captain America, Hulk, Thor and Loki. In the film Loki takes over New York whilst the Avengers try to regane power.
My favourite book is Georges secret key to the universe.
I like it so far and the main characters are Anne, Eric and George.
My favourite part is when George and Eric goes to see the star gets born and then dies.
That’s my favourite book.
My favourite film is start wars return of the Jedi because its set in a galaxy far far away and because there are a lot of battles between the rebels and the empire. The main charters are hansolo,luke skywaker,Darth Vader,chewy,c3po,r2d2,jabba and the hut princesses liar and lando and bobbea fett. Star wars in a lot of movie,book and comic’s. I love the rebels and the ewocs on the moon of endor and I love the DEATH STAR.
My favourite film is Star Wars. I know it is science fiction because of the cool millennium falcon,lightsabres,the death star,star destroyer and fighter pods. there are many creatures and aliens like kamineons,wookies,geinosians and many more. This mind boggling film is set on many planets like hoth,corusant,aldearan and kamino. The top five characters are in my opinion are Anakin/darth vader , Jar jar , yoda , obi wan and padme. There was a few comics of star wars at the time it started but i think the first one made was the film. I love star wars because it is not at all anything to do with humans it is just like a new universe starting and has loads of cool tech and vehicles and there is quite an up and down storyline and every step is action.
PS:DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK TO SPELL GEINOSIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favourite film is Star Wars. I know it is science fiction because of all the different creatures such as wookies and ewoks and weapons such as lightsabers. Some of the main characters are: Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Hans solo and Chewbacca. The main villains are: Darth Vader, The Emporer and the Storm Troopers who are an army. It is mainly based in space and different planets such as Quell. Star wars started off as a film written by George Lucas. I like Star Wars because it is really creative and futuristic. I particularly like the light sabre duals.
